PRO KITCHEN TIPS
- Don’t Overmix the Dough: Once you start adding dry ingredients to wet, mix until just combined. Overmixing can result in tough cookies.
- Use Parchment Paper or a silicone mat: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent cookies from sticking and ensure even baking. I find doing this keeps the bottoms of the cookies from getting too brown.
- Use a cookie scoop: Use a cookie scoop to make sure all of the cookies are the same size. This helps them to bake evenly.
- Let Them Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a 1-2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set and maintain their shape.
